Did you see the first in a new series of articles called 'Insights' on page 13 of the latest Project Cargo Network (PCN) Digital Newsletter?
The word insight has various meanings according to various dictionaries. However, in this context, 'insight' means 'clear understanding', and that is exactly what the aim is of these new articles. To provide a clear understanding of how things work or why things are done a certain way in the Heavy Lifting and Heavy & Specialized Transport industry.
"As with everything in life, we have to start with the basics. Our industry has moved, shipped, lifted and transported some of the most amazing cargo of unimaginable sizes and unthinkable weights, there are a few very basic laws of nature that these moves abide by. A thorough understanding of these laws of nature (insight) will aid in proper equipment selection, recognition of the forces and a timely identification of unwanted situations."
Believe it or not, there are still too many accidents that result in equipment damage and unfortunately loss of life. In the articles, PCN will highlight some of the most memorable scientists whose discoveries enable us to carry out our transport and lifting activities.
"Without these discoveries, our industry (and many other industries) would simply not exist."
As you know, PCN are proud to provide regular Digital Newsletters as a free service to their Members.

If you are an Apple fan like us at the Freightbook Head Office, we suggest you download each new issue to iBook then you can have easy access to it. Here's how to download the latest issue:
